Once you have downloaded the appropriate server program you can follow these steps to get a default server up and running ASAP.
Windows platform:
1) Download and execute the latest Ventrilo Windows Server. This will create an entry in your Start menu called "VentSrv".
2) From the "VentSrv" menu click the "Ventrilo Server" menu option. This will open a console window application that the server will run in.
This will start the server using default settings which should be more then sufficient for the normal user.
The ventrilo server does not have a GUI interface. All output will occur in the console window.
To change the configuration of the server simply click Start -> VentSrv -> Edit INI file. This will open the server INI configuration file using the Notepad program. Make the necessary changes, save the file and restart the server. The INI file is documented in the "Setup Documentation" menu option.
The server can be started in the background on the NT / 2000 / XP platforms via a service program. First make sure you have the server configured properly and in a usable state as shown above because once you start it as a service you will not see any visual feedback. You need only click on the VentSrv -> Service -> Install menu option once after installing the program. The next time you reboot your computer the server will be automatically started in the background as a Service application.

not really sure how hard this is, it took me 6 mouse clicks
1. ventrilo.com -> download server
2. install server
3. start ventrilo server
4. load ventrilo
5. make new login for localhost
6. login to ventrilo running on my computer
any firewalls you have running will cause it to fail for others, port forwarding needs to be setup on your router if you have one
none of this matters when you are logging in from the same machine your server is running on
